Praying with Mandalas: A Colorful, Contemplative Practice - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Coloring books aren’t just for kids anymore. In recent years adult coloring books have become popular. Many grownups have discovered that coloring can quiet their thoughts and reduce anxiety. Sharon Seyfarth Garner found that coloring offered her a new way to pray. She felt especially drawn to mandalas—beautiful circular designs containing geometric patterns.

Contemplative coloring is a simple, enjoyable, and tangible way for adults to “be with God on purpose,” as Garner defines prayer. Praying with Mandalas blends the relaxing practice of coloring with the ancient spiritual practices of lectio divina (savoring the words of scripture), intercessory prayer, centering prayer, and Examen (seeing God in the events of our daily lives).

This coloring book guides adults through a heartfelt, tangible experience of prayer, helping them create a visual prayer journal.
